I agree with others that Verant should not forcibly move people off a
server. I made good friends at level 5 and 6, fighting in the Orc camps
outside Kelethin, and they are friends to this day. Would have hated to be
moved away from them. Closing down the server to newbies is also
problematic. I think the world works best when there are players of all
levels in it. Heck, if there are no younger players, whom am I supposed to
sell all this ring I am getting in Unrest to? ;-) That would benefit the
power-levelers, who would always have people below them to sell loot to, and
hurt everyone else, who would not. Besides, having people of widely
different experience levels just makes for a more interesting world.

I agree with this. Every 10th level wants bronze, every 20th level
wants rubicite. Therefore Unrest is jammed with the small races after small
bronze, and Cazic is jammed with people after rubicite. We need these items
more widely distributed.
